The Better Canon Lens
Canon has a cheaper 55-200mm lense, but it does not have image stabilization and is much slower than this one. I shoot action shots at full zoom with great results. My Son has the cheaper one, and is disappointed.

Amazingly good for the price
The IS system works extremely well, though it is not silent. The lens is small and lightweight, but it is cheap feeling. If you have the money, you'll be happier with more expensive Canon glass, but for the money this lens is hard to beat. With the 18-55mm IS, any Canon EF-S shooter can have a very wide selection of focal lengths with just two lenses. They're slow lenses, but the image stabilization makes up for that in most cases. Obviously moving subjects are the exception and sports photographers will always want fast lenses.

Great lens for the money!
My hubby decided I needed this lens for football. I wasn't sure I would be happy with the speed and clarity for the price. What a pleasant surprise. This lens is giving me some sharp photos and football moves fast. There are times I would love a little more speed, but seriously...it would cost a great deal more. This one is great for the Mom who shoots her kids in action. Some might complain about the plastic parts, but I am grateful it is light weight. Bokah is good. Great gift of the serious amateur!

Nice lens
I bought this lens for the image stabilization, replacing a 70-300 without IS. It does help and the lens works good for this price point. I still see alot of softness at the maximum reach of the lens, but that is to be expected for this price.

Great for a D-SLR beginner
I don't know much about photography. Until a week ago, I've always just used point-and-shoot cameras, and had no idea what I was in for when I got my Canon Rebel T1i. I've found this lens very easy to use for a beginner SLR user, and, to my uneducated eye, the pictures are amazing. It is a great price for one of a newbie's first couple lenses. I am extremely pleased.

Canon Cameras HistoryCanon Corporation is a world-known manufacturer of office equipment ranging from printers and fax machines to scanners and copying machines.
The amount of photographic equipment produced by Canon is rather moderate in comparison to their other products. But it is in demand around the world. Don’t forget that it is the photographic cameras that the company began its business with.
As early as in 1933 Goro Yoshida and his brother-in-law, Sabura, founded the Precision Optical Instruments Laboratory in Tokyo. Their goal was to create a Japanese camera and make it known throughout the world. To begin with, the young people bought up and examined most advanced German models of that day. The enterprise was sponsored by Takeshi Mitarai, best friend of Uchida, a prosperous doctor, who later became president of the company.
In the following year, 1934, Japan's first domestically-made 35mm focal-plane shutter camera “was born” and was named "Kwanon" - after the Buddhist Goddess of Mercy. The trademark Canon was registered a year later.
The first consumer model Hansa Canon appeared in 1937 and the le... More About Canon Cameras |
